Big Bear Lake may be known for its
world-class fishing. But did you know it’s
also an outstanding destination for
paddling? It’s true! Paddling from the seat
of a kayak or canoe is the perfect way to
see some of the gorgeous scenery this lake
has to offer.
Big Bear Lake is the ideal summer paddling
getaway for paddlers that want to explore
nature and have a unique mountain
experience. Aside from kayaking and canoing,
there’s also a host of other water sport
activities which you and your family or
friends will enjoy, such as paddle boarding,
for instance, which is slowly becoming more
and more popular in the area.
Picnicking and fishing by the lakeside is
also a favorite activity here. The lake is
open in the spring, summer and fall for
kayaking, canoeing and SUP boarding. With
its clear, dark blue waters, and mountains
with tall pines that come right down to the
shorelines, this is one destination you
don’t want to miss.
Paddling around the lake is relatively easy
during the morning and evening, but the
winds tend to kick up in the early
afternoon. After some time spent paddling
around the shores of Big Bear Lake, it is
time to unwind and fish. The fishing season
begins early in April, continuing into early
summer, but there’s still pretty good trout
action in the fall.
This
beautiful alpine lake is a favorite spot for
many kayak anglers. Anglers will find plenty
of opportunity to catch rainbow trout,
largemouth and smallmouth bass, swimming in
the lake’s depths. Big Bear Lake is the
perfect choice for the paddling enthusiast!
